@BlueHeronFarmTX's letter to the TSC board is absolutely perfect. Please join of you shop there. I don't regularly, but I'm adding it to the list of ones to avoid, like that chicken place and hobby store.
@DevinCow "Catalogue" because for some reason, they wanted this spelling in the US. I was in 4th grade and that one word took several of us out. My phone's spellchecker doesn't even recognize this spelling!
@anniek_p 100%. Somehow, our kids don't usually figure out that we're entirely winging it, at least until they're older.
It's always been helpful to me to remember that I'm honestly doing the best I can & forgive myself when I know it's not enough.
I'm now more understanding of my parents
The reason "Barbie" doesn't get nearly enough love from certain parts of the Academy is because it centers narrative tension + themes that aren't understood or appreciated by straight men. What Greta Gerwig accomplished is deeply undervalued, yet nothing less than extraordinary.
Power concedes nothing without a demand.
The best way to make demands is by getting organized.
You know who is organized AF? Moms.
We don't have to live like this. The gun nuts are nowhere near a majority. Demand better. Demand freedom. Demand life.

🧵My best friend (Black woman) & I were pregnant at the same time 18 yrs ago. We both had preeclampsia, hers undiagnosed as her symptoms were written off. I was put on bed rest & hospitalized. She was told to relax. A week after she gave birth, the day my son was born, she died.
I don't have a lot of money, but I am offering a $100 reward for the return of this afghan. I made it by hand, all single crochet, pieced together and given to my mom on her birthday a little over 20 years ago. It MISSING from Hallmark Care Center in Mt. Vernon Iowa.
